The next Morning:
The sounds of grunts filled the room as Felix exited the bathroom; it had been a weird night. He woke up in the middle of the night to find Ron face down on the floor. Ron's body had looked pale; his first thought was that Ron was sick. But from what he was seeing now that thought quickly left his mind.
"Ron what are you doing?"
"78, 79, 80," Ron stopped mid sit up "Oh hey Felix I'm just working out a little."
Felix's eyes narrowed with suspicion.
"Since when do you exercise in the morning? Then he glanced at their digital clock, "and since when have you ever woken up before eight?"
"85, 86, 87, Felix I have to tell you lately I've had so much energy, I mean tons of energy man. It's like I'm on a 24/7 sugar rush"
Ron stood back up and started doing jumping jacks.
"Aw my little boy is finally going through puberty, it a very awkward stage for teenage boys" Felix said laughing.
"Ha that was so funny" Ron said sarcastically as he started to do push ups, sweat pouring down his body. "Seriously Felix if someone told me I had to go through that phase again, I would jump out of a window and shoot myself on the way down."
"I guess those weren't the happiest moments of your life," Felix laughed as continued to watch Ron do his push ups.
"Felix I was born awkward, puberty just increased it tenfold," Ron said panting as he continued to push his body.
"Jeez dude you're like a machine, how long can you keep this up?"
Ron smiled at his friend "Well lets find out, keep an eye on the clock."
Two hours later.
Felix entered the room to find Ron doing squats.
"Holy-- man are you still at it?" he called out.
Ron looked at him incredulously "Felix when, did you leave the room?"
"About half an hour ago, are you telling me you didn't notice that I left?"
"No, I was so focused on the exercises I didn't notice. How long have I been doing this?"
Felix moved toward the clock "dude it's been over two hours."
"Felix honestly I'm not the least bit tired, I've never felt so alive in my life. Now check this out."
Ron removed his shirt revealing his new six pack abs.
"Wow Ron you're ripped, how long have you been working out?"
Ron looked at him; he couldn't believe what he was about to say but it was the truth.
"Felix I've been working out for three days."
"Three days"? Shouted Felix. "You became that ripped from only three days of working out."
"Yeah."
"Dude that is impossible, you must be using some kind of super steroids."
"I can't believe it either, it's so weird."
"Ron I'm not sure, but there has been something different about you" Felix said as he looked Ron over.
"What do you mean?"
"I don't know, I can't explain it, but it's kind of like you're glowing, if you can make any sense of that."
Ron stared at Felix for awhile processing this information.
"Felix is there something you want to tell me?"
"What?"
"It's okay Felix, I'm your friend I won't judge you."
"Hold on Ron, I think you're getting the wrong idea here."
Ron laughed, "I'm flattered, but I don't play for that team Felix, I'm sorry."
"Alright that's it, forget I said anything."
Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
"That's probably Allen, let him in I'm going to change" Ron told Felix as he headed to the bathroom.
"You mean Allan, your adopt a freshman slave" called out Felix as he headed towards the door.
Seconds later Felix returned followed by a pale, short, and stocky looking boy. Tape was holding his glasses together. He wore a Battle Star Galatica cap, and carried a backpack on his shoulder. His shirt had a sign that read; "Nerds do it like they do complex equations in their heads!"
He pushed his glasses back in place with his index finger "I heard that remark, I would like you to know that I serve Ron proudly he is my mentor."
"Ron is your mentor I think you should check that equation again" replied Felix.
"Ronald is my hero, did I ever tell you how he saved from some savages."
"Oh no, this is like the fifth time" Felix said as he rolled as his eyes, but he knew it was too late to stop the story.
"It was just a few months ago but I remember it like it was yesterday. I was on my way to register for my freshman classes when suddenly a car rolled up near me. It was that jerk Steve Foster and his gang of cronies."
"Yes and Steve had tortured you and your friends throughout high school. And somehow while cruising for chicks his gang spotted you and wanted to reminisce" recounted Felix, he knew the story by heart.
"Exactly, I tried to run but like a pack of wild beasts they pounced on me quickly. Now I was already used to eating mud already, it always surprised me how mud has such a varied taste, depending on the minerals it contained of course. But this was a special day, going to college was always a dream of mine and now my day was being ruined."
"And then came the cavalry" said Felix as he leafed through a T.V guide.
"Out of nowhere" continued Allen "he appeared majestically like Captain Kirk in episode 37, Amok in time."
"Wow it was a good five minutes before we got a Star trek reference out of you," said Felix checking the clock.
"Hey you guys leave him alone". "That's what Ron said as he approached us, not a hint of fear on his face. He came up to them and said "I don't think you should be doing that".
"Braver words were never spoken" quipped Felix.
"Then in a fit rage Steve throws a punch at him, and then with The Flash like speed, Ron caught the punch. Then he says "dude I don't really want to fight so early in the morning, I actually have a date so if you can leave this guy alone I'd appreciate it". Acting like the irrational ape he was Steve threw another punch."
"Yes then Ron hit him in the stomach and knocks the guy out, the end" sighed Felix.
"Wait you forgot my favorite part when the other guys saw Steve go down, they ran like a bunch of little girls" Allen began to tear up." After all those beatings it was so refreshing to see them get humiliated for once."
"Just doing my job to protect my fellow man" Ron said when he returned from the bathroom.
"So what's going on?" He asked
"Well Allen here was just recounting the Misadventures of Ron Stoppable again," Felix told him.
"I love that story" said Ron "I think it shows how I can be sensitive and tough at the same time."
Ron grabbed his backpack, woke Rufus up and placed him in his pocket.
"I'll catch you later Felix, me and Allen have some stuff to talk about," Ron told him as they exited the door.
"Let's move Allen"
"Yes Sir" Allen exclaimed.
"I like your enthusiasm dude, but don't call me sir."
"I'll try to keep that in mind Sir." He said moving quickly to catch up with Ron.
As they strolled across the campus grounds, Allen pulled out a roll of papers from his bag.
"Alright give it to me straight how's my baby doing" Ron gulped his hands shaking nervously.
"Well I checked the statistics this morning, and since you posted the Fearless Ferret The Revenge Arc online you've gotten twelve reviews" said Allen reading from the paper.
"Twelve reviews; it's been online for a month, how could it only get twelve reviews" Ron cried out.
"That's what the stats say Sir, and stats don't lie."
"Alright" sighed Ron "break down the reviews for me, and stop calling me sir"
"Well Sir, Ferret Prince 006 said it was a cool story and he can't wait for the next one, Ferret lover69 says OMG this such a cool story, Ferret God said that you are a fairly competent writer but you write too plainly.
"Hi Ron" said a girl who strolled by them.
"Uh yeah hi Nancy; fairly competent writer huh, what a jerk" he said, barely noticing the girl.
"Why is he a jerk?"
"You're a fairly competent writer, who says that? That's a pity review Al, he should have just wrote that the story makes him want to hurl, then at least I'd know he read it."
"Okay Sir, he also said that the ending was a little cheesy."
"Cheesy? Who doesn't like a cheesy ending, I love a cheesy ending, Rufus you like cheese right?"
"Cheese!"
"Allan, what about you?"
"Well Sir I--"
"You see everyone loves cheese, do you know why people read fan fiction it's for fluff and cheesy endings and that's what I give them," roared Ron
"Whatever you say Sir."
"Looking good Ron" said another girl walking past them
"Okay thanks Shirley you too" Ron sighed again "I'm sorry for snapping at you Al, but I put my soul in this. Anyway so how's the competition and stop calling me sir."
"Well FerretGo posted his story today and has since received sixty nine reviews.
"Hey Ron you're looking especially tasty today" said a tall Brunette as they walked past.
"Uh thanks" Ron waved to her.
"Who was that?" Asked Allen
"I have no idea. Sixty nine reviews in one day, how is that possible?"
"The stats don't lie Sir"
"I know what's going on here, they're outcasting the new guy, and just because it's my first fic they're not reviewing my story. Those elitist jerks I'll show them, my next story will blow their minds."
"Actually Sir this was also FerretGo's first fic."
Ron stopped in his tracks "That's even worse."
"How is that worse Sir?"
"How else can someone get sixty nine reviews in one day? He's obviously a professional writer. Yeah he's some old dude with a Pulitzer sitting on his desk, that decided to write fanfics making us average Joe's look like crap. It's a sinister plot, how can anyone sink so low."
"How's it hanging Ron" said another girl who winked at him as she passed by.
"Stop Allen" Ron said "that was like the fifth girl to tell me hi today in less then five minutes, something is up. Stuff like this has only happened to me twice. When I got that poofy haircut and when I was a millionaire."
"Are you serious Sir?"
"What, what is it?"
Allen pulled out small notebook from his pocket and pointed to a bench.
"Let's sit" he said reading from the notebook.
"Now Sir over the past two weeks your popularity with the girls of this campus has spiked by sixty percent."
"You're kidding me right" said Ron amazed at what he was hearing.
"Are you telling me that for the past two weeks, college girls having been throwing themselves at you and you haven't noticed?" Screamed Allen
"Wow; well I have a history of being oblivious to these things," Ron answered looking up towards the sky.
"But what's made me such a hottie, I haven't done anything differently," Ron wondered.
"Well KirK652005 once sent me an email, where he said that ever since he got engaged, girls have been throwing themselves at him. He said something about being able to commit to another girl drove the chicks around him wild."
Ron looked down at his fingers; his ring glinted in the sun. A symbol of the undying love he felt for Kim.
"Are you saying this thing is making me a babe magnet?"
"It seems logical Sir."
Ron dropped to his knees "The attention I've seeked forever, has finally come to me, but only when my heart now belongs to Kim. Oh Fate why are you so cruel."
"Are you done Sir?"
"Hold on".
"WHYYYYYYYYYYY!" he screamed into the air, than sat back on the bench.
"Alright now I'm done."
"So what are you going to do Sir?"
"What can I do, I love Kim so I won't do anything naughty. But that doesn't mean that I can't enjoy the attention."
"Will Kim be ok with this?"
"Oh yeah she's very understanding."
"It must be nice to have someone to be with" signed Allen.
"Don't worry little dude, soon you'll find a girl who likes you for who you are."
"That's easy for you to say, some people can't marry their best friends who had already accepted them years ago."
Ron's right eyebrow rose "whoa was that a shot?"
"Yes it was Sir."
"Holy crap speaking of Kim, I was supposed to meet her for brunch, we're double dating with Monique's new guy today."
"Al we'll chat later I've got to go."
"No prob Sir"
"Stop calling me Sir" Ron yelled as he ran towards the shopping district.
Yamanouchi
Master Sensei was tied up, and thrown against the wall. He picked himself and gazed towards his hooded assailant. Who took the opportunity to kick him the face.
"Master Sensei" cried one of his students.
The student broke through his ropes and charged at the offender.
"Stop" Master Sensei screamed at his pupil "now is not the time to fight."
The student stopped in his tracks then he was quickly recaptured be a group of hooded monks.
"That goes for all of you" Master Sensei yelled out to all of the students tied up alongside him in the dojo.
"This group has very powerful members" thought Master Sensei, although he could defeat them, a battle may drag some of his students into the fight. They were not ready to battle such powerful foes head on.
"Yes listen to your master" said the leader. "For once he has made the right decision."
The figure removed his hood revealing his face, although Master Sensei had already known who it was long ago.
"Fukishima san why do you continue to disgrace this school with your evil?" he said.
"Shut up old man, I'm no longer a member of this weak school, you kicked me out remember. But I found a group that has helped me gain incredible powers, and they promise me more if I give them some vital information.
"And what information can that be?"
"Tell me where Stoppable San is old man, or I'll let them burn this school down."
